Proud of what? That you can copy other websites? Stealing others ideas and work is nothing to be proud of. Thats just my opinion.

Proud of what?

phpBB.nl is the Dutch version of phpBB.com
not everybody can understand English perfectly. So be happy for the Dutch/Belgium people.

ElbertF just told that phpBB.com give this site permissions to make the Dutch version... so no copying or stealing other ideas

The template is almost copied from phpbb.com but this great dutch team maked there own version of this template (ProSilver) everybody can use it at there own forum

So WTF are you talking about?

[Shoot]

Dutch version is fine. Stealing other people's work is what i have a problem with. Is it that hard to think of your own design? Why copy? Why try to steal the credit and looks of phpbb.com? Support them all you want, but copying because you have a lack of talent is another. You can go ahead and ban me this is the last time i plan on stoppin in anyway.

Totally agree on this one, and besides that, nowadays it's downloadable!

The layout has been sort of 'taken over' from phpBB.com. So what? It's completely build from scratch and we have put a lot of effort in it. The prosilver (at least the blue one) style is free to download, so that is not the problem i guess?

And if you really think that this is illegal, contact phpBB.com and see how they think about it!

Okay, nu ff serieus, van wie is die kloon?

Since we're an official support forum I think we should be at least recognizable, we made the choice on forehand to keep in style with phpBB.com. As Zero Override noted we didn't copy images or CSS, we did it ourselves (take a look). It's not a clone at all.

I'm taking a guess etncrew/Spambot/ElbertF did the new design? As it blends phpBB.com with his personal phpBB3, it's different enough to not cause Bertiezilla to be enraged.

I was to say make use of complimentary colours more, though having had a look at the value to compliment the main orange colour, it is pretty much the same as prosilver blue...

How is it stealing if they approve it? If it's "lack of talent" you're complaining about, I could show you plenty of other websites I've made to prove you wrong. But I'm not going to, because apparently you're avoiding this discussion by "not stopping in" anymore (though I'm pretty sure you're reading this right now). And oh, why would we ban you? To emphasize your point?

Alright, I'll end this discussion then. Although I want to make clear and you may disagree but phpBB.nl is not a replica of phpBB.com and we didn't copy anything except of that we use the same software we are different. And for the next time, please contact the administrator first.
